Wednesday

I have had a lot going on. Not that I really want to get into the more dramatic parts, but they have had their affect on everything else. I have finished a few samples for my scarfs and wraps. I have a photo shoot set for Sunday with my photographer, which means a run to the storage unit today to get stuff and make my payment.
I'm looking for a house to rent, maybe rent to own. Who knows. We'll see how this whole thing goes. I am excited at the progress I've made on getting my samples done. After I get those all cleared next will 'inventory' building. I wish there was a better word for it than that. I mean, my handmade things are more than just inventory. I put a lot of thought and work into every design and finished scarf, wrap, beanie.  And to just call it inventory.... seems kind low. At any rate, I will post photos after they are resized and such.

Not happy, but happy.

I am so freaking sick I could scream! I have a nasty bacterial infection in my respiratory system, pink eye, and allergies. I had to take the day off work to 'rest'. But I don't rest. I can't be idle. It drives me mad. So what do I do instead... play on the internet, make notes on projects, think about my samples that need to be finished, daydream, putter around the house bored... all the while hoping that someone likes me up there enough to make all this horrible stuff go away. I do have antibiotics for it all, but they never work fast enough for me. I was done with this 3 days ago. I'm okay with the things I have done, but good I'd like to be doing more with my day off. Why do I only get days off when I'm sick?

Ailments.

I have a list of ailments. Allergy season has decide to finally hit me in the face. Which is all fine and good because I have Zyrtec. But all is not well. It (meaning that allergies) managed to carry some nasty infection into my lungs. So now I have bronchitis or some other nasty foul version of discomfort and pain brewing in my chest.  I am currently pouting about it, especially my normal desire to be productive is on low. Which honestly just annoys me. On a better note, that custom order is now done! I finished it yesterday afternoon. After my interview.... I haven't mentioned that yet.... I'm in the news, again. Not for anything bad, just a minor controversy. The city is trying to shut down the bar I work at. So I was interviewed at our protest by the Standard Examiner and Channel 4 News. Which has now lead, apparently, to a human interest story for the Standard Examiner about how 'normal' dancers are. I find it odd that I have to explain that I'm normal. Ok, I'm not normal. But I am not the negative preconceived notions about dancers. Anyway back to the subject on hand. I finished the custom order, and started back working on my samples for my line of scarves. So I am very excited about that.

Tuesday

I have been working on and off on a custom order for the last little while. Which is nice because I know that I'll b getting paid, but at the same time it puts all my plans on the back burner. That's the frustrating part. I have limited time as it is anyway, and looking at my project list just overwhelms me. I feel like I am falling behind. I am hoping that I get contacted by the farmer's market and another crafts fair I applied to soon. I'll feel better if I know that I have something to really work towards. Speaking of which I need to get ready for class and squeeze in some more time on that custom order.
